Stop motion? Check.
Tim Burton? Check.
Color palette of gray, dark gray, light gray and almost gray? Check.
Christmas? Check.
Halloween? Check.

It's like I pissed off a CEman with my IRREFUTABLE LOGIC and he went back in time to make a movie that combines all my least favorite everything just to get back at me.

That movie probably came out before you were born, so your emo whining is lame.

Also the music in it was great as well.

Earlier this month we went to the live show with the orchestra playing the soundtrack and all the main voice actors like Danny Elfman performing. Got it as one of my wife's Christmas presents last year!

I know very little about emoji movie so it may very well be less appealing. I generally don't go out of my way to watch movies that look stupid.

But NBC has forced its way into every single Kingdom Hearts game (at least that I've played), so I've spent countless hours stewing over how terrible everything about the whole concept is.

You think Nightmare Before Christmas is unappealing but not the garbage that is Kingdom Hearts?

Just saw it for the first time last week. It's not as good as some other movies in its genre, but it was enjoyable for sure. Definitely see the appeal of watching it every year for Halloween/Christmas.

And the songs were pretty good. Esp the intro song.

Just from a development standpoint, I gotta give them props. It seemed ambitious as fuck.

KH is great, lol.

It doesn't use stop motion
It doesn't have any Tim Burton
It has colors in it
No Christmas
And no Halloween!

Except the obligatory terrible Halloween Town world

There was a grayscale world, but that's the closest it has gotten. And really, that was classy af.

What kind of man hates stop motion? I understand not liking that specific film, my partner is crazy about it but I thought it was simply good. But I've never in my life and all my time discussing and reading about films (this is what most of my non film watching spare time is spent doing) encountered anyone who just flat out dislikes stop motion.

The problem with stop motion is the complete lack of motion blur. In fact, you can replicate the problem with stop motion with an actual video camera by simply setting the shutter speed too fast.
